SUMMARY
This discussion focuses on optimizing shear stress in structural analysis, specifically through the application of equilibrium of forces and momentum to determine forces F_a and F_b. The challenge arises in case b, where the problem lacks sufficient specifications to derive a third equation for analysis. Participants suggest setting an unknown force on the left side to express shear values in terms of that variable, ultimately aiming to minimize maximum shear stress in the structure.
PREREQUISITES- Understanding of equilibrium of forces in structural analysis

I just can solve problem ##a## by apply equilibrium of force and momentum to find ##F_a## and ##F_b##. But with case b, I can't find third equation.osilmag said:

Yes, b) is not fully specified. E.g. you could take away all of the shown forces and still have shear on the bolt resulting from tensions and compressions in the members on the left.alexteplyaxins said:
You could set one of those on the left as an unknown and find the shears in terms of that, then find the value of the unknown which minimises the maximum shear.
